The Biology, B.S., Molecular Biology Concentration is designed with both rigor and flexibility, in order to reflect the many different employment pathways open to molecular biologists. Fields such as cell biology, immunology, developmental biology, genetics and the exploding field of bioinformatics offer opportunities for graduates with a solid understanding of the inner workings of the cell. This concentration also allows students the option of combining computer skills with their knowledge of biology. Major Requirements: BIOL 110 - Introduction to Biology: Evolution, Ecology, and Plant Biology BIOL 111 - Introduction to Biology: Molecules, Cells, and Animal Physiology BIOL 131 - Biology Freshman Seminar BIOL 231 - Biology Sophomore Seminar BIOL 301 - Genetics BIOL 302 - General Microbiology BIOL 331 - Biology Junior Seminar BIOL 401 - Cell and Molecular Biology BIOL 402 - Evolution BIOL 405 - Biochemistry BIOL 430 - Advanced Laboratory Methods in Molecular Biology BIOL 431 - Senior Seminar One course from the Ecology Cluster: BIOL 203 - Ecology BIOL 208 - Animal Behavior BIOL 220 - Conservation Biology BIOL 320 - Natural History of the Vertebrates BIOL 322 - Field Biology BIOL 326 - Freshwater Aquatic Biology One course from the Organismal Biology Cluster: BIOL 204 - Invertebrate Zoology BIOL 211 - Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy BIOL 212 - Developmental Biology BIOL 218 - Marine Biology BIOL 306 - Animal Nutrition BIOL 403 - Advanced Botany BIOL 406 - Vertebrate Physiology One additional Molecular Biology Elective course: BIOL 212 - Developmental Biology BIOL 305 - Immunology BIOL 398 - Biology Internship BIOL 399 - Biology Internship BIOL 406 - Vertebrate Physiology BIOL 412 - Special Topics in Biology BIOL 413 - Special Topics in Biology BIOL 414 - Special Topics in Biology BIOL 415 - Special Topics in Biology BIOL 416 - Special Topics in Biology BIOL 420 - Research I BIOL 421 - Research II BIOL 422 - Research II BIOL 423 - Research II BIOL 424 - Research II CHEM 321 - Physical Chemistry I CHEM 322 - Physical Chemistry II CHEM 404 - Advanced Organic Chemistry CPSC 121 - Introduction to Programming CPSC 122 - Intermediate Programming CPSC 250 - Bioinformatics Programming NEUR 279 - Introduction to Neuroscience Collateral Requirements: MATH 121 - Calculus with Analytic Geometry I One of the following: BIOL 315 - Biostatistics MATH 130 - Discrete Mathematics MATH 215 - Introductory Statistics STAT 205 - Essentials of Statistics PHYS 104 - An Introduction to Physics I and PHYS 105 - An Introduction to Physics II or PHYS 121 - General Physics I and PHYS 122 - General Physics II CHEM 121 - General Chemistry I CHEM 122 - General Chemistry II CHEM 221 - Organic Chemistry I CHEM 222 - Organic Chemistry II
